How to Utilizc Soil.

The Planters journal says that Japan
presents wonderful example as to how
the soil can be utilized. With an area OF
12,O0O,0O0 acres, about equal to that of
California, the natives have reduced az
riculture to such scientific principles as
to feed and clothe $4,000, 000people, besides
yielding 100000 pounds of tea, $4,000
bales of silk and large quantities Of rice,
tobacco and hemp for export. OF the
whole population 10000. 900 belong to the
agricultural class. The soil IS black
vegetable mold, wonderfully fertile. There
are few domestic animals, but the Japa-
nese supply the place of barnyard ma
nure with bran, seaweed. non-edible fish
and lime. Rice is the great summer crop
and wheat Is grown on the same land in
winter. The latter is boiled like rice or
made into cakes, but bread is unknown.
Grains ara ground with small handmills,
precisely like those used by the ancient
Egyptians. Every sort of vegetable is
grown and at least 100 food plants. un-
known to us except as weeds, have been
dOmesticated in Japan. Male and female
laborers can be hired by the year for SIS
or $50, but the purchasing powerof money
is far greater than here, and the habits
OF the people are simple.

How to Drink Milk.

Popular Science Monthly says milk
should never be taken in copious draughts
like beer or other fluids which differ from
it chemically. If we consider the use of
milk in infancy, the physiological indi-
gestion, that is, of food provided for it,
each small mouthful is secured by effort
and slowly presented to the gastric mu-
cous surface for the primal digestive
stag es. 1t Is thus regularly and grsdu-
ally reduced to curd and the stomach is
not oppressed with lump OF half-coagu-
lated milk. The same principle should
be regarded in the case OF adults. Milk
should be slowly taken in mouthfuls, at
short intervals, and thus is rightly dealt
with by the gastric juice. If milk be
taken from other food it is almost sure to
burden the stomach and cause discomfort
and prolonged indigestion, and this for
the obvious reason that there is not suffi-
cient digestive agency to dispose of it;
and the better the quality of the milk the
more severe the discomfort under those
conditions.

suggestions About Poultry.

More atteu ton is gradually being given
In the South to the production OF eggs for
market and to the raising Of poultry. By
this it is not meant that the local demand
in each community is not supplied but
that the people are beginning to realize
that there is money to be made in poultry
and eggs, and they are, therefore, gradu-
ally preparing TO seek distant markets.
Great care should be taken to get good
breeds of fowls and to provide proper feed
and accommodations for them. AS the
batching season is close at hand the fol-
lowing suggestions from poultry jour-
nal may be of interest: 1t very often hap
pens, particularly in early spring, that
chicks will be twenty-rour hours over the
allotted time in Matching. A hundred
reasons can be found for this delay. The
hen may not sit steadily and continuously
lust as she ought 10. The weather may
be desperately cold for single night dur
ing the process. The eggs may be old
(instead OF fresh laid when put under
the hen. The sitter may have been dis
turbed by dog, cat or other intruder for
hours when she has temporarily deserted
the eggs. The latter may have been par
TALLY chilled, and 80 IN either case the
incubating process is delayed, interrupted
or retarded whereby the time OF consum-
nation is deferred, not unfrequently for
J some hours over twenty-one days.
When they are ready to leave the shell
in a natural way they will come out all
right, II they can't get out leave them
there. 1t is not worth while to assist
them ordinarily. Sometimes when the
eggs are Of more than usual value assist.
ance may be given in extreme cases.
Ii the hen is very gentle indeed you can
sometimes put your hands under her and
remove the shells Of the first Matched eggs
to prevent them from "capping". the re-
naming eggs and to get them out OF the
way, so that their sharp edges will not
Ipjure the tender brood, and it is some
times good plan to do this, but unless
the sitter is very tame and quiet her IN
easiness Will do more harm than the egg
shells will. Hens that steal their nests
and have no help generally hatch re
markably well.
But if the eggs Especially of Asiatic
and Plymouth Rocks) have such thick
tenacious membranes that obviously no
chicken could ever force it's way out of
Shem, no matter if they were sprinkIed

De necessary after you have waited a day
or two for the unassisted operations OF
nature, yet bungler can't help chickens
into the world. 1t is a simple enough
operation, however, to those who have
patience, gentleness and mechanical tact.
In the first place you must not commence
till the chick is thoroughly ripe and has
tried it's level best already. Then begin

this way the same day, not one of which
died. But il you make a chicken bleed
